Scot, thanks for the gem! Ha, I love it! I forgot if I was in that or the WPX CW, but I am glad I sent my log in for the one I did. Thanks for the K3NG link, what a hoot! We have FISTS, will the SSB folks create MOUTHS ? Fair weather ops, conditions are poor, gee SSB isn’t so good now. they go find other hobbies. Meanwhile CW is going strong. Last week on a portable op I made a 5 watt CW QSO to a guy in New York. My first NY QRP! I feel guity now. I will have to enter an SSB contest under my own club name, the Underachievers Contest Club. Sometimes you only feel like making a few QSOs. Thanks Scot!!
Sometimes it’s the small few that stands out. The qrp or qrpp signal and qso made will be remembered more than the lighthouse qsos with armchair copy and all the buds standing around patting you on the back for pulling it through. When you pull a tough one through, that’s the one you’re proud of. CW FOREVER…. and thanks for the article too, Scott.
